This contemporary figurative tabletop sculpture is by Paul Duval.This charming series of indoor sculptures showcases Quebec artist Paul Duval’s skill in capturing the human ‘condition’ in simple form. Each clay-coloured paper mache and wire sculpture possesses a distinctive personality expressed in a pose, a gesture, a mood. In this piece, Gaspard sits, head turned, his hands resting on one leg. He appears to be deep in thought. A rock acts as a pedestal adding natural texture and colour.
“I think my work represents and distinguishes humans with a capital ‘H’.” Paul Duval
